Introduction
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are first-line treatment options for ALK-positive (ALK+) NSCLC. Factors such as variant allele frequencies (VAFs), EML4-ALK fusion variant, and concurrent TP53 mutations (TP53mt) in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) may affect treatment outcomes. We evaluated their effects on time to discontinuation (TTD) of first-line treatment with next-generation ALK TKIs in a real-world setting.
Methods
Adults with advanced or metastatic NSCLC and ctDNA-detected ALK fusion who received first-line next-generation ALK TKI monotherapy were identified in GuardantINFORM. Effects of ALK fusion VAF, EML4-ALK variants, and TP53mt detection on TTD were evaluated.
Results
A total of 307 patients with ALK fusion in baseline ctDNA received first-line alectinib (n = 280), brigatinib (n = 15), lorlatinib (n = 9), or ceritinib (n = 3); 150 patients (49%) had ALK-fusion VAF greater than or equal to 1%. Among 232 patients with EML4-ALK fusions (v1, 50%; v3, 36%), TP53mt co-occurred with v1 in 42 (18%) and v3 in 32 (14%). Patients with VAF less than 1% versus greater than or equal to 1% had a median TTD of 32.2 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 20.7–not estimable [NE]) versus 14.7 months (10.4–19.9; hazard ratio [HR] = 1.57 [95% CI: 1.09–2.26]; p = 0.0146). Median TTD was 13.1 (9.5–19.9) versus 27.6 months (17.3–NE) in patients with versus without TP53mt detected (HR = 1.53 [1.07–2.19]; p = 0.0202) and 20.3 (14.4–NE) versus 11.5 months (7.4–31.1) in patients with v1 versus v3 (HR = 1.29 [0.83–2.01]; p = 0.2641). Patients with TP53mt and v3 had a median TTD of 7.4 months (95% CI: 4.2–31.1).
Conclusion
High ctDNA VAF, EML4-ALK v3, and TP53mt were associated with early discontinuation of first-line ALK TKIs.

Introduction
Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has firmly established its role in stage I NSCLC. Clinical trial results may not fully apply to real-world scenarios. This study aimed to uncover the real-world incidence of acute toxicity and 90-day mortality in patients with SBRT-treated stage I NSCLC and develop prediction models for these outcomes.
Methods
Prospective data from the Dutch Lung Cancer Audit for Radiotherapy (DLCA-R) were collected nationally. Patients with stage I NSCLC (cT1-2aN0M0) treated with SBRT in 2017 to 2021 were included. Acute toxicity was assessed, defined as grade greater than or equal to 2 radiation pneumonitis or grade greater than or equal to 3 non-hematologic toxicity less than or equal to 90 days after SBRT. Prediction models for acute toxicity and 90-day mortality were developed and internally validated.
Results
Among 7279 patients, the mean age was 72.5 years, with 21.6% being above 80 years. Most were male (50.7%), had WHO scores 0 to 1 (73.3%), and had cT1a-b tumors (64.6%), predominantly in the upper lobes (65.2%). Acute toxicity was observed in 280 (3.8%) of patients and 90-day mortality in 122 (1.7%). Predictors for acute toxicity included WHO greater than or equal to 2, lower forced expiratory volume in 1 second and diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide, no pathology confirmation, middle or lower lobe tumor location, cT1c-cT2a stage, and higher mean lung dose (c-statistic 0.68). Male sex, WHO greater than or equal to 2, and acute toxicity predicted higher 90-day mortality (c-statistic 0.73).
Conclusions
This nationwide study revealed a low rate of acute toxicity and an acceptable 90-day mortality rate in patients with SBRT-treated stage I NSCLC. Notably, advanced age did not increase acute toxicity or mortality risk. Our predictive models, with satisfactory performance, offer valuable tools for identifying high-risk patients.
简介:立体定向体放射治疗(SBRT立体定向体放射治疗(SBRT)已在 I 期非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)中发挥了重要作用。临床试验结果可能并不完全适用于实际情况。本研究旨在揭示SBRT治疗的I期NSCLC患者在现实世界中的急性毒性和90天死亡率,并为这些结果建立预测模型:方法:从荷兰肺癌放疗审计(DLCA-R)中收集全国性的前瞻性数据。纳入了2017-2021年接受SBRT治疗的I期NSCLC(cT1-2aN0M0)患者。对急性毒性进行了评估,急性毒性定义为 SBRT 后≤90 天的≥2 级放射性肺炎或≥3 级非血液学毒性。建立了急性毒性和90天死亡率的预测模型,并进行了内部验证:在7279名患者中,平均年龄为72.5岁,21.6%的患者年龄大于80岁。大多数患者为女性(50.7%),WHO评分为0-1分(73.3%),cT1a-b肿瘤(64.6%),主要位于上叶(65.2%)。280名患者(3.8%)出现急性毒性,122名患者(1.7%)90天内死亡。急性毒性的预测因素包括 WHO ≥2、较低的 FEV1 和 DLCO、未经病理确认、中/下叶肿瘤位置、cT1c-cT2a 分期和较高的平均肺剂量(c 统计量为 0.68)。女性性别、WHO ≥2和急性毒性预示着较高的90天死亡率(c统计量为0.73):这项全国性研究显示,SBRT 治疗的 I 期 NSCLC 患者急性毒性发生率低,90 天死亡率可接受。值得注意的是,高龄并未增加急性毒性或死亡率风险。我们的预测模型性能令人满意,为识别高危患者提供了有价值的工具。
